One hundred and thirty-one inner city

Bajie and Sha Seng muttered to themselves as if they were crazy, and hurriedly stepped forward and patted him, saying, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Xuanzang then came back to his senses and quickly explained: "For some reason, when they heard them mention the word "Bara" and his master felt uncomfortable. It seemed to have a lot to do with these words, but they couldn't figure out the key points."

Bajie smiled and said, "It must be that the master has heard these words before, but it has been forgotten for too long. When people mention it, they will feel that it is very familiar. There is nothing to be surprised about. Look at Lao Zhu, it is probably not normal for those people just now. Why don't we go to the city and ask other people, it's a big city to find out some news."

Xuanzang nodded and said yes, and the group stepped towards the city gate.

There were several men standing under the city gate, but their clothes were also torn. They held a wooden stick in their hands. At most, they could stop some wild beasts. They didn't look like soldiers.

Like the previous group of pedestrians, they seemed to be startled when they saw Xuanzang's disciples, and knelt on the ground with a thud, trembling all over, but refused to say a word. Xuanzang wanted to come forward and help everyone up to comfort him, but unexpectedly, before his hand touched them, they screamed and ran away in all directions, as if they had seen a ghost, which made Xuanzang even more confused and had to continue walking into the city.

There are large areas of houses in the city gate, but most of these houses are tents made of wooden sticks and animal skins. They are so simple that it is hard to believe how many functions it can shelter from wind and rain. The residents inside are also ragged and skinny. They have already heard the shouts of the guards and are hiding in the houses, carefully looking at the master and apprentice through the gaps. For a moment, the originally noisy town suddenly became silent.

Xuanzang looked around and said in surprise: "How strange, how strange, our master and disciple are not evil people, why are the people so afraid of us?"

Bajie was also confused at this time and said unhappily: "These people are sneaking and must be uneasy. Why not Lao Zhu catch a few people and interrogate them carefully and see what tricks they are going to play."

Sha Seng grabbed him and said, "Master, Second Senior Brother, look over there." As he said, he pointed to the depths of the town, but saw another city wall standing inside and outside, which was slightly taller than the one outside. Then he said, "Since these people here are so afraid of us, we don't have to force it. Why not go behind the city wall and take a look, maybe you will gain something."

Xuanzang also felt that this was reasonable, so he led the two to the second city wall. When he got closer, he found that there were also several guards standing under the city gate. However, compared with the gate outside, the guards here looked much more decent. They were dressed in neat leather armor and were holding bright iron swords and guns, which really looked like an army.

After seeing the appearance of Master Xuanzang and disciples clearly, the guards were all surprised and knelt down and said, "The villain has seen three adults."

It was rare that someone was willing to talk to them. Xuanzang was immediately relieved and hurriedly stepped forward to support him and said, "Don't be too polite to all donors, please get up quickly."

Several guards stood up with honor and said respectfully: "Three sirs come to my mysterious mountain city, but I don't know what's the point of doing?"

Xuanzang then realized that the city was called Mishan City, and said, "Good, good, I am from the Tang Dynasty in the east and went to the west to worship Buddha and pray for scriptures. The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and I lost my way. I was lucky enough to find Guicheng, so I wanted to find out the way. I hope all donors will give me advice."

The guards hurriedly said, "The villain is afraid, how dare you guide the adults? You can also ask the adults to enter the inner city and discuss with the Bharats."

"Master Bharat?" When he heard this familiar word again, Xuanzang immediately thought of it and asked, "Dare you ask a few donors, what is a Bharat? Why do the people outside call me a Bharat? Are you afraid of me and unwilling to talk to me?"

"This..." The few people wanted to speak but stopped, looked at each other, but did not dare to say much, saying, "The little man is just a little Fei Sheren, how can he understand these? Please ask the adults to go in and ask the Bharats. As for the people in the outer city, they are all Shouda people. If they dare to have some contact with the adults, they will defile the adults' holy name and naturally they will not dare to talk to the adults."

"Flying Sheren? Shoutu?" Xuanzang was even more confused. He wanted to ask a few more questions, but someone in the inner city shouted: "You flying houses are not good at guarding the city gates, but you chat and be lazy here. Could it be that you are tired of a good life and are going to live in the outer city?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They followed the sound, but saw more than ten people strode from afar. The leader was slightly fat, wearing a gold wire blouse, a gem crown on his head, and a red copper-inlaid gold stick in his hand. His face was full of arrogance. He looked like an extraordinary person.

"Master Bharat!" Several guards hurriedly came forward, knelt in front of the man, kowtowed a few times, and explained: "Master Bharati is wronged. Please see, these three Malarks came to the door and asked the villain if you have something to ask the villain. The villain dared not not answer, but it was not just chatting and being lazy."

"Oh? Is this really the case?" Lord Bharat noticed the three masters and disciples of Xuanzang. His eyes lit up. He walked up to him and bowed and laughed loudly, "It is really a honor for the three lords to come to my Mishan City. In the Great Brah Suha, the Great Brah Suha in the Mishan City, I have lost the opportunity to welcome you. I hope you don't blame me."

This kind of respect and politeness is more arrogant than before, and it makes people suspect that it is a different person.

Xuanzang has always been the most polite, so he quickly put it together and said, "You are polite, Lord Su, I am not surprised by my two disciples when I am disturbing you."

Suha hurriedly said, "The Bharata in the world is a family. Since the adults come to my mysterious mountain city, it is no different from going home. Please follow me to the humble house to drink a cup of tea, and then talk to the adults in detail."

Xuanzang was full of questions at this time, so he nodded and said yes. The master and disciple followed Suha to the inner city. The guards at the city gate kept kneeling on the ground until the group left and dared to stand up.

The three of them looked around and found that the scene in the inner city was very different from that in the outer city. The houses here were made of wood, with complete doors and windows, which could be called normal houses. The people living here looked full of energy and dressed in linen clothes. Although they were not as luxurious as Suha, they were still clean and tidy.

Compared with the outer city, this place is a normal town, but the number of people is far inferior. I don’t know what the difference is between inside and outside.

In addition, when the people saw Suha, they all bowed and bowed and watched everyone go away, which made Xuanzang, who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East, feel deeply uncomfortable. However, they see Suha's look as if she is taken for granted, but they are not inconvenient to say more.
